#ring for jeeves

[whathobertie]

Jeeves' takes a husbandly pride in Mr. Wooster learning to fend for himself. Mr. Wooster can clean his books, darn his socks and make his bed, and it's making Jeeves emotional.

but at the end of the day bertie still needs jeeves to hand him his socks so all is well, no one's hurt :]

they'd get along so well

You know, the idea that Jeeves is autistic is so entrenched in my mind that I usually don’t actively think about it, it just lives in the back of my head as a fact so obvious that it’s not worth constantly stating

But there are still occasional moments that make me sit up and go “my god, Jeeves is autistic”

Why is Jeeves describing Bertie as a “mauve-pajama addict” so incredibly amusing to me?

Ring For Jeeves could be considered PG Wodehouse's deconstruction of his own stories. The usual romantic comedy character-relation tropes are there, but the world they live in is remarkably different. All of Wodehouse's stories take place in a Genteel Interbellum Setting, but Ring For Jeeves explores what would happen if time actually progressed. World War II has happened, Britain is in the throes of social upheaval which separates Jeeves and Bertie (Bertie is sent to a school that teaches the aristocracy how to fend for themselves), poverty and suicide and graphic death are acknowledged, and Jeeves even admits to having "dabbled in" World War I. The book's setting, Rowchester Abbey, is falling apart at the seams and the characters who inhabit it start to feel like a pocket of old-fashioned happiness in a darkening world. In case any doubters still exist about 3/4 through the book, there's Constable Wyvyrn's musings about just how much the world has changed.    And then there's Greaves, This is Serious, by William Mingin, another Wodehouse deconstruction. Bertie begins to grow dissatisfied with his carefree life of idle frivolities, and begins questioning his butler Greaves to see if they ever do anything... productive. The answer is quite chilling.

Came across this while searching for an online link for “Greaves, This Is Serious”. It’s a really good story.

the threat of getting kissed by a woman is enough for jeeves to go back running into bertie's arms

another thought: bertie and jeeves being separated is just :(( disturbing. i can't handle it. it makes me too sad.

another another thought: i don't CARE how it should work out but bertie should be rolling in money forever and jeeves should be there, always, to fish him out of the soup. if need be, ill pitch in my 2 cents to contribute to bertie's networth. BUT JOOSTER SHOULD BE UNAFFECTED and safe from all harm!
